Unidentified steam trawler wreck in St Margaret's Bay. 1915

About this Item

Description:

A sequence of 4 photographs showing the wreck of a steam trawler, stern to in St Margaret's Bay between 1915-1920.

The two masts are still standing, but the bridge structure, funnel and deck gear are all gone. The 4th picture shows salvage work underway. A suggestion was made that this might be the 'John Sherburn', but a close comparison shows discrepancies.
